# Translations

Do you want to translate Librum into your language? If so, then feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] and we can work on making that happen together!
Librum is currently available in:
- English
- German
- Russian
- Mandarin

If you want to translate Librum to another language, follow the steps below:
- Download the file at: https://github.com/Librum-Reader/Librum/blob/main/src/presentation/translations/librum_en.ts
- Rename the file to contain your language's suffix, e.g. "librum_ru.ts" for Russian or "librum_de.ts" for German
- Download the translation software (Qt Linguist) either for Windows from https://github.com/thurask/Qt-Linguist or using the Qt Installer at https://www.qt.io/download-open-source
- Now start Qt Linguist, open the downloaded file, set the target language to the language you want to translate to and start translating.
(For a quick guide on Qt Linguist, check out: https://youtu.be/xNIz78IPBu0?t=347)

Once you are done, create a pull request or an issue with your new translation file!<br>
If you run into any problems, need guidance or have questions, feel free to reach out to us at: [email protected]

Notes:
- Make sure that your translations are approximately the same length as the original text
- Make sure that you keep to the punctuation and capitalisation
- Make sure that your translations make sense in the context they are in
